    I've lost over 100 pounds since April 2012, but have gained a bit back. Looking to lose 50 more. The journey is so worth the prize. Enjoy every victory.
    For Fun: I've been wanting a new pair of jeans- we'll see.

    I just have a question...since this is my first month long challenge, I'm not sure how the boards operate. Are we supposed to be communicating with everyone or are we supposed to just post weigh-ins when the dates come?

    Daria, we post our weights weekly here; when we do, you'll see everyone would copy/paste their weight chart format (from SW to Total Weight Lost section) with new weekly weights added on those check-in days. We also encourage you to share your successes and struggles, and give support to the person above you on each of your posts, if you would.

    Feel free to look at our February thread for example:
